## Summary This changes the Unix shell escalation path for skill-matched executables to apply a skill's `PermissionProfile` as additive permissions on top of the existing turn/request sandbox policy. Previously, skill-matched executables compiled the skill permission profile into a standalone sandbox policy and executed against that replacement policy. Now they go through the same `additional_permissions` merge path used elsewhere in shell sandbox preparation. ## What Changed - Changed `skill_escalation_execution()` to return `EscalationPermissions::PermissionProfile(...)` for non-empty skill permission profiles. - Kept empty or missing skill permission profiles on the `TurnDefault` path. - Added tests covering the new additive skill-permission behavior. - Added inline comments in `prepare_escalated_exec()` clarifying the difference between additive permission merging and fully specified replacement sandbox policies. - Removed the now-unused skill permission compiler module after switching this path away from standalone compiled skill sandbox policies. ## Testing - Ran `just fmt` in `codex-rs` - Ran `cargo test -p codex-core` `cargo test -p codex-core` still hits an unrelated existing failure: `shell_snapshot::tests::snapshot_shell_does_not_inherit_stdin` ## Follow-up This change intentionally does not merge skill-specific macOS seatbelt profile extensions through the `additional_permissions` path yet. Filesystem and network permissions now follow the additive merge path, but seatbelt extension permissions still need separate handling in a follow-up PR.
npm i -g @openai/codex
or brew install --cask codex
Codex CLI is a coding agent from OpenAI that runs locally on your computer.
If you want Codex in your code editor (VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf), install in your IDE.
If you want the desktop app experience, run
codex app or visit the Codex App page.
If you are looking for the cloud-based agent from OpenAI, Codex Web, go to chatgpt.com/codex.
Quickstart
Installing and running Codex CLI
Install globally with your preferred package manager:
# Install using npm
npm install -g @openai/codex
# Install using Homebrew
brew install --cask codex
Then simply run codex to get started.
You can also go to the latest GitHub Release and download the appropriate binary for your platform.
Each GitHub Release contains many executables, but in practice, you likely want one of these:
- macOS
- Apple Silicon/arm64:
codex-aarch64-apple-darwin.tar.gz - x86_64 (older Mac hardware):
codex-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.gz
- Apple Silicon/arm64:
- Linux
- x86_64:
codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz - arm64:
codex-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz
- x86_64:
Each archive contains a single entry with the platform baked into the name (e.g., codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl), so you likely want to rename it to codex after extracting it.
